NFL First-Round Pick Accused of Murder After Asking ChatGPT How to Cover It Up [Current Affairs]

A former NFL first-round draft pick is charged with killing his fiancée in a home they had shared for just ten days. Prosecutors say that in the hours before calling 911, he used ChatGPT to ask questions about her injuries and how to describe what had happened. As investigators detail a history of prior violence, a severe autopsy report, and inconsistencies in his account, those AI conversations have become part of the evidence in a case that is now headed toward a grand jury.

Current Affairs is Love Murder’s shorter show about the cases of love gone fatally wrong that are in the news right now.
